Absolutely not what is advertised. Waiters service excellent. Food not bad. We were refunded.
Conditions of room is dirty and their were holes in bedding. Old candle with burnt matches lying in the room. The buildings are tired. You may not use the lawn by the river unless a picnic is booked. Bedding not premium. It has so much potential but if not seriously upgraded like broken chairs and hotel carpet in reception filthy it wont be open foe long.

In all we had a pleasant stay. Lovely setting and staff. Room size was disappointing as I had a different impression from the website booking (photos and price paid).

The Blades provided the perfect experience to "get out of the city" without being too far out of the city. I loved the environment and the look and feel of the place, especially the "rooms," which were individual houses that were comfortable and beautiful inside. I had a wonderful view of the water from my private balcony and enjoyed the views from my window. The food was very good and the staff was AMAZING and charming. I will definitely come back!

Overall enjoyable.
Food at dinner time needs attention in terms of presentation.
Staff needs some training around food options.
But food tastes great!
